  • 60 hours in as Baldur's Gate 3's nasty Dark Urge and I'm kicking myself for missing a load-bearing early cutscene with unique dialogue for every race and class

  • I'm pretty sure that if there's ever a BG3:DLC or BG4, the redeemed Dark Urge SL will be canon. What with >!Withers intervention, the warning about your own offspring, etc.!<

  • If you did a fully custom character the first time, try playing as the Dark Urge origin. There's a good story there that you wouldn't have experienced elsewise.

  • A recent pilot in Prague enabled Hosts on Airbnb to trial Minut noise sensors, and found a reminder can be all that’s needed for a potential noise issue to be quickly resolved

    If a reminder is all that's needed, the device could be an offline decibel meter that lights up when the volume exceeds a threshold.

    Plus I'm sure parents are going to love their phone blowing up when little Billy is a bit too cranky at bed time.

  • Lyft now lets drivers prioritize matches with women and nonbinary riders

    Jump

  • You've changed the perspective to potential wait time for male passengers. That may be true but it doesn't have an adverse impact on male drivers, which is what was stated in the comment I replied to.

    It is objectively always better to be in the women+ group than outside of it.

    Based on Ubers data, women+ are raped five times as often in ride shares. "Objectively" I bet a lot of women+ would choose "maybe a longer wait" over "5x chance of being raped".

  • The protected category doesn't matter, I don't see how anyone is getting a leg up or being held back by the feature.

  • The option allows customers to prioritize drivers...

    Nope, it doesn't. The feature is for drivers, not passengers.

  • Explain how sorting the list of available passengers by gender is discrimination? It's being rolled out in huge metropolitan markets so there will be enough drivers for everyone to get one.

    Jump

  • Your comment makes no sense given the details provided in the article. The toggle runs a gender-based sort on available passengers when a driver indicates they're ready to pick up a new passenger.

    • Male driver, without this toggle, indicates they're ready for a passenger? All waiting passengers are sorted by current algorithms.
    • Female+ driver, with this toggle off, indicates they're ready for a passenger? All waiting passengers are sorted by current algorithms.
    • Female+ driver, with this toggle on, indicates they're ready for a passenger? All waiting passengers are sorted by gender then current algorithms.

    At no point does the pool of available passengers for male drivers decrease.

  • What? I've never played a game that limited the number of times I could install it.

  • And? It would take a trivial amount of effort to spin up VMs and install the game on each. If I immediately tear the VM down after, I'm sure my cost would be covered by free AWS credits.

  • Why do password managers charge for TOTP code generation?

    Jump

  • The "Product Led Growth" crowd doesn't care about charging based on what things cost. They only care about what the buyer will tolerate. The "value metric" that pisses me off the most is per user pricing when the service doesn't incur costs per user.

    Any domain registrar/hosting provider that does not require propietary software to run?

    Jump

  • You shouldn't avoid platforms just because they have non-free websites, that's extreme bro.

    Yeah. The idea of not using a domain registrar because they optimize for the 90% use case (web management) seems pretty extreme to me. But if OP is against web sites, I don't know how they'll read the docs for something like using Terraform to manage domains at Cloudflare. It is an option but it's also the 10% use case.

  • The Best Password Managers in 2023

  • I'm curious about using the same store for passwords and TOTP. Technically if someone gets screwed to your database, they have both your factors, yes? But I guess it does thwart someone trying to brute force your password.
